I can represent my learning and tell how it connects to my experiences when it comes to my own creation based on my imagination that I have expressed. My inspiration from this piece reminds when I was at the Boracay Beach with my cousins and aunties. The water is clear, the sands are crystal dried, and the shells are beautiful that the sea itself is wonderful. I can analyze evidence to make judgements of my work that it needs work and effort so I can make it better than the previous one and be proud of my own work. I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy. I take pride in my work and myself so I can feel the sense of pleasure and motivation to do more artwork or pieces that I will share my work.

Core Competency 12 Reflection Ceramics

Critical and Reflective Thinking

This is snowy. Snowy from the adventures of Tintin. He is a faithful companion of Tintin and a sidekick.
He is a wire fox terrier and has white fur, he was one of the cutest and cuddly animal in the series and I want to make a sculpture out of him. When I start making snowy, it was quite hard to make. I had to make the proportions exactly like him just like I made my reference on my sheet of paper. Molding his body was quite hard to make especially his head it was bigger. I had to make his head smaller and accurate just like he looks like and scrap off some extra clay off from him. After fixing his head, I molded the ears and sliced into edges, then I carefully put it on the top of his head. Next I do the face which it was a simple design and stick it there, then I mold the rest of his body and now its done. Now on to the next step, I cut the boxes and paint the ovals yellow and stick with hot glue gun together, and then I use another cardboard box to paint the rest of the background black. I glaze my sculpture and wait for the few days to be dry. Finally I put him at the background and use my flashlight at them to add a shadow.
